Castleman disease: a case report of a pediatric incidental case in Saudi Arabia.
The most prevalent symptom of Castleman disease, a rare lymphoproliferative condition with an unclear etiology, is a mediastinal nodal mass. While it is quite uncommon in youngsters, it is prevalent in adults. We report a case of a 14-year-old boy who was admitted to the department of surgery for acute right-sided abdominal pain, with suspected acute appendicitis. Preoperative imaging investigation of the abdomen showed an inflammatory appendix as well a large mesenteric mass. Histopathology examination confirmed the diagnosis of acute appendicitis and mesenteric mass unicentric Castleman after resection by laparoscopic approach.
